icon Match Key Factors

icon Weather & Conditions

The match will take place at a steady 28°C, enhanced by a canopy of broken clouds and brisk winds flowing at 12–14 km/hr.

iconPitch Analysis

The pitch at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru is tailor-made for entertainment, offering a flat surface and short boundaries that encourage aggressive stroke play.

Batters find it easy to time the ball, while bowlers — especially spinners — often struggle to contain the flow of runs.

Early on, pacers might get a hint of swing, but the true nature of the pitch soon takes over, turning it into a scoring paradise.

Dew frequently plays a role during evening games, further tilting the contest in favor of chasing sides.

The average first-innings score here stands at 180, keeping high totals well within reach.
